Understand that proteins have different levels of structure: primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary.
The primary structure of a protein is the sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain.
The secondary structure refers to the local folding of the polypeptide chain into specific patterns, primarily alpha helices and beta sheets, stabilized by hydrogen bonds.
The tertiary structure is the overall three-dimensional shape of a single polypeptide chain, resulting from interactions between side chains.
The quaternary structure involves the interaction and arrangement of multiple polypeptide chains into a functional protein complex.
